Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

STOCKS WERE broadly lower at midday, with the Dow down 22 points at 10,502, nearing levels analysts said could indicate the market was in danger of a more serious downturn.

All summer analysts have complained about the market being stuck in a tight range. Yesterday morning it tested the lowest levels of that range. Technical analysts said the low to watch for the Dow is 10,466, the 27 May close; yesterday morning it touched 10,444.
